Afternoon all. I have managed to chip the paint of my newly painted petrol tank, it’s only a small chip and right near the front so don’t know it’s there without looking. Is there anything that you guys could recommend me to use to touch it up with? Thanks.

I think it’s a Moto Morini 350 cc.

They were pretty busy but repaired it for me while I waited, all done and dusted in about 15 minutes. So great service.

Thanks for the offer Andrew. I managed ok by using my step ladder suggested on another thread and support under the sump. Had puncture repaired by GS tyres in Wokingham recommended by Steve D. Wheel back on with the assistance of Mrs Bradders. This Forum is great for the mine of useful information I get.

Thanks Lobo that’s very useful. I think Haynes says about doing the front nuts up first but not about which way the clamps go, so thanks.

Thanks Julie. I’ve also been looking at the thread on here about supporting the bike with the wheel off. Thanks again.

Evening all. Seem to have a puncture in my front tyre so need to remove the front wheel. Is it easy to remove the front wheel ? Any thing I should be careful about? The Haynes makes it sound easy. TIA.

Thanks for your advice oddjob. I did look at Ash’s coil repair but it seemed a bit daunting to me. (I’m not the best mechanic in the world.)

It could be a coil or a cap is failing as the engine warms up, when it's cold it's fine but any heat makes them start to fail.
Any chance you can borrow a set of known good coils and caps for a test to see if it still does it?
Is it possible to test coils / caps whilst they are still on the bike?

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I will start her up tomorrow and see how the headers warm up.

When you first start it have you tried feeling the header pipes to see if they warm up evenly?
I haven’t tried that. Would that indicate if the leads or coils were suspect?

Ok thanks Julie. Will have another look.

I’m not 100 per cent sure Julie as my mechanic set them up last week. I know he started off at 2 turns out.

Hi Julie. It seems to do it when the weather is cooler as well. Rode it to work at 5-30 in the morning when it was nice and cool but was still the same.

Morning all. Some of you may recall my original post some time ago. Still having problems with rough running below about 3,500 rpm when the engine is hot, in fact it’s getting worse. Have adjusted mixture screws with the help of my mechanic so think they are probably about right. Changed plugs, air filter as well. Wondered if anyone had any more suggestions I could try. The problem is a lot worse when the engine is hot, almost to the point that it feels like the engine is going to stall when pulling away. It’s driving me nuts!
